Whether it was an ssistant or not Coach Bryant was the Head coach when the birth of this tradition started.

I don't know that thats a good reason but it's mine nonetheless.

That is taking away from the tradition of the cigar by not acknowledging who started it and what it meant at that time.

Coach Donahue played for UT and the General. He knew how much the game meant to Coach Bryant.

When you consider it was a former UT player that started all of this...well, that is from where traditions and stories are made...
